THE DORKING BUTCHERY THE DORKING BUTCHERY 600-700g flat iron steak Start by seasoning the flat iron steak with salt and pepper. We recommend cooking 500g rocket the steak in one piece and slicing after. For best results, sear the steak on a high heat Good-quality Balsamic vinegar, to taste for approximately 3-4 minutes on each side. When the steak has what looks like a nice heavy crust on the outside, remove from the heat and place on a cutting board Good-quality extra-virgin olive oil, to taste to rest and slice later. Parmesan cheese, to taste Dress the rocket leaves with olive oil and balsamic vinegar and arrange on a plate. 1 handful of sweet balsamic baby onions Grate or shave over enough Parmesan for your taste; we find the salty Parmesan Salt and black pepper goes perfectly with sweet, sharp balsamic vinegar, so tend to use a lot. Return to the steak after a few minutes resting and slice into thin bite-size strips. Place on top of or next to the rocket salad and scatter over and around the sweet baby onions. To accompany the steak, try serving with thick-cut chips or griddled cherry tomatoes, and serve with a glass of full-bodied red wine. 10 The surrey Cook Book Preparation time: 15 minutes | Cooking time: 5 minutes | Serves 2 Surrey is well known for attractions such as the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Hampton Court Palace and Richmond Park, but there’s more to this SURREY hidden gem than first meets the eye.
